Tbe following extract, i a from the Richmond Examiner of INov 4th, and is from the report of Capt, Hauler, dated off eoaat North Carolina am the Con fed' erate steamer Curbia. Oct. 80th: At dawn yesterday we started and on our way looked in at Beacon Island and Ocranooke, but saw noth ing wan certainty or tne enemy - at or near either point. We than started for Hatteraa Inlet, and when near tba position of th inner buoy, the enemy opened fir upon ns from tie fort, and two or three of their steamers, with out injury. In coming within easy range 1 sighted the rifled gun at the Harriet Lane and fired. The fort and steamers continued to fire at as ss rapidly as possible. We fired six shells ana the stern gun at them five times. It is un certain wnetner the enemy sustained any in jury, 'ibe vandals Bred 23 shells at us, only 1 or wtueh oame near, reeling that I bad ear ned out the spirit of your instructions, I with-iiw and waited within half a mile of (ha buoy, hoping to draw (he steamer outside. When we fired the stern gun, (he fort returned the shot We stood back and fired another shell and took our departure.' All hands displayed great en-thusiasui, and seemed delighted when one steamer began moving towards us. There were at anchor ibside sixteen sailing vessels and three schooners. ' Tbe steamer Spaulding is hourly expected at t ortress Alonroe, and we will then have tbe news of the fight. Nothing bas been heard from tiatteras for two weekr. The Richmond Examiner, of Novembor 4th, says the work on (he Merrimao is still uncompleted, and there are great complaints of im-perfcslion of the iron work as furnished by the foundries there, and adds that it is certainly high time she was completed. Ine correspondent of the Examiner complains that Governor Letcher, who had visited the Peninsula to look after the situation', bad done nothing on arriving there but eat hog, fish and drink.

' , The .Telescope Rifle. A correspondent of the Boston Courier, speak-cf the Telescope Rifle, says : ) '1 hare waited anxiously to learn the result in aotual service of tbe telescope rifles, which we are testing in the field far the first time, and I have very little doubt (hat hereafter they are destined to play an important part in warfare. I am happy to corroborate the testimony given by Governor Andrew in their favor, by an extract from one of. the sharp-shooters, who says: "Our telescope rifles realized our best anticipations, maintaining all we have claimed for them. We can do good work at half a mile, and some at a mile. A Mississippi regiment, 1,600 strong, came in sight of us, and although we were un supported, and only thirty of us in position to see them, we opened fire at over 100 rods, (more than a quarter of a niile, and our rifles fully met our expectations, doing fearful work, and soon putting the whole regiment to flight, while not one of their shots took efl'eot." ITiEoefor(h, (hen, is not the telesoope rifle to be the weapon for sharp-shooters, and the En field for the line? H. w. . C. aBuld-faced Whisky in a "Horn!" The Wheeling Intelligencer (ells the follow ing: I-...;-: Colonel Roberts (who had been taken pris oner by the rebels) sayB, that the ' great beset ting sin of tbe rebel army is that popular bev erage Known as naia-iaced whisky. The officers find it impossible to keep tbe article awy from the men. At Manassas, recently, tbe soldiers procured beef enlrala, which they blew up with elders and dried, and after filling these impro vised oan teens witn whisky, carried them in their bats, and for several days they had as much whisky as they could drink. The conse quence of this was a serious mutiny, which was suppressed with some difficulty. ! Tnking a Prize at Hattpran. Capt. Ly(l, of Ihe' 20th Indiana Regiment, writing from Halteras, gives the following ao count or taking a prise: A sail was seen approaching the Inlet show ing no oolors. . Captain uonlon "smelling rat'' ran up the seoesh colors in the fort, and the schooner immediately did Ibe same. She came boldly np to (he bar, the lug-boat "Ceres' ran out to tow her in. The Captain of the tug immediately boarded her, shook hands with the seceBhers, and said, "I thought when I saw you coming down tbat 1, bad a prize. No, indeed, said be, pointing to the doom ed rag, "under tbat dag 1 will die." "Well,' Baid our brave hero, " you have had good luck in getting in. ' "xes," said the seoesh, "but I suppose if tbe Yankees want to come down here, you can shell the very d 1 out of (hem. "les," said our Yankee, "we can shell the very d 1 out of tfttm." - "Well, that's good, 1 hope we may be able to lake every Yankee on tho coaBt." "Yes," was the reply, "We are taking about one sail a day, and some are pretty fat ones too." By this time tbey bad passed through tbe Inlet into the Sound.

"Did you?" said tbe latter, interrupting our Yankee hero. "Well, that's too good." "Yes, we fetched her in you see," said our Yankee, turning to Mr. Secesh.

Aitant-Qnirtrrmaeter Pavi' Bla- k- eta. To ling. Gen. Thvnuu, Adj. Otn United Slate Army: Sib : It is important I should corieet without delay, some errors in reference to myseir, which I find in your published report te Ibe Secretary of War, nnder dale of Oct. 28, 1861. Gen. Fremont did not give ma any oontrai t far blankets, or for any thing else. As a regularly appointed Assistant Qiartermaater by tbe President, nominated, and, by and with tbe advice and oor-sent of the Senate, appointed by bim (as my commission states), 1 presume 1 was legally competent, and by law bound, to make such purchases as my commanding General ordered me to do ' Tbe blankets you refer to were a po'tioa of my purchases. Ine "Board'' that condemned them did not report tbat they were rotten "and worthless.'' When their report reached General Fremont he sent for me, and, expressing great displeasure, rtquired that th blanket should be returned, t 1 assured bim that there must I some mistake in th report, and requested him to suspend bis approval of it I re-examined the samples by wbioh ths goods were bought, found them not to be rotten and worthl, bat, commercially speaking, sound. As some of the goods cost not much over a dollar a Dianset, and the lot, on an average, about $1 40 eaob, as near as I can remember, and were part cotton, they could not be as strong or as serviceable as goods oom posed only of wool and oosting from three to four dollars each. Although mortified by tho report, I was sat isfied the purchase was a good one, (bat the goods were sound, and that if (hey would not suit for ons nurnose. tbey would for some oth er, where they were equally needed by the Department. 1 manifested my opinion with some earnestness to those with whom I oame in eon-tact, made a written report to the General of my view of tbe affair, and naked tbat a committee of merchants should be appointed to examine the blankets. While the Commanding General bad my request under consideration, one of tbe "Board" who had condemned (hem came to my office and said to me, Ihe Board of Surrey would like the General to allow tnem to re-eiamme the goods. This was granted by (he General, and a new survey was ordered by Assistant Adjutant-Gen. Kelton. I was present, and wefouLU tbat while some of the blankets, those weighing from five to six and three-quarters pounds per pair, could not be torn by us. the lowest-priced ones could. One member of the Board, who seemed to have the most objection (o receiving them, said that what be meant by the word "rotten," in the original report, was "not fit for soldiers in the field." I was sure his motive was good, for his anxiety was that each soldier should have an all-wool blanket, not to weigh less than four pounds, and (o bo army standard in size. The blankets were as well suited for tbe use of the army during the last three months ss standard blankets will be for tbe ooming six. 1 do not know what the seoond report was, but as I was informed some days after the second inspection, by tbe Assistant Quartermaster, who was at the head of the Clolbing Department, that 1 could now have a recipt for the blankots, and tbat they bad been issued, I considered the affair srtisfaoUiriiy settled. 1 do not know that they were not sent to the bespital, but upoa a fuller examination, I think it. will be found lhal they were not. But even if tbey were, I do not see that this should reflect discredit upon those engaged in the transaction. In Exhibit II, published by you, 1 find ma name in the list as one of the officers of the body guard. From your Report 1 infer (hat your information comes from Ihe Paymaster's office. It is entirely incorrect, as you may ascertain from Col. Andrew, 4f you think proper to inquire of him. I can only aooount for the misstatements yon have made iu reference to myself, from lbs fact that when you were in St. Louis I was confined to my bed, and lhal you presumed from ths reports you aw and beard tbat you had (he whole Ircth befu-e you in reference to these affairs. Very respectfully, t. M. DAVIS. Assistant-Quartermaster Philadelphia, Oot. 31, 1801. Cut Oir the Back Legs of iota Chairs I will tell you a secret worth knowing. A thousand things not worth half so much have been patented and elevated into a businees. It is this: If yon cut on the back legs of your chairs so that the back part of tbe seat shall be twe inches lower than the front part, it will greatly relieve the fatigue of sitting, and keep your spine in much better shape. The princi pal latigue in sitting oomes irom your siloing forward, and thus straining (he lig mints and mueoles in the small of tbe baok. Ihe expedient I have advised will obviate this tendency, and, as I have suggested, add greatly to tbe comfort and bealthfulnesa of the sitting posi tion. ' The front edge of a chair should not be more than fifteen inohes high, for the average man, nor more than fourteen for ibe average woman. The average chair is now seventeen inches high for all, which no amount of slant ing in the seat can make comfortable. lewms Uymnamm. - ( What Two Little Girls Did. Two little giils. daughters of H. M. Addison, of this city, during last summer's vscation earned a small amount of spending money by sticking carpet tacks. Of course, it was all tbe more valuable to them, for having earned it themselves, in stead, howover, of spending it upon toys or candy, they volunteerly proposed to buy a pound of yarn and knit some socks for the soldiers. This they did, and yesterday sent three large, warm, aud weit-xnii pairs ot books, to toe rooms of the Soldiers' Aid Society. 'All honor to the self-denying little patriots. The sol diers will not fail to remember and bless them, Cleve. Leader. A Fast Aoe to Livb in. Men grow old rapidly in such limes as these. Our intense life wears heavy upon bone, and flesh and musolo. Measured by sensation and experience, we hav lived a generation since Fort Sumter was bombarded. Even Bull Run seems half an age ago.

Ia oonseqneno of a poweriui storm tne nursling oi a waterspout, according lo soma statements the Lalle mine was noooea, and in aides reii in, ourying all the working men. An explosion of gas took place at tbe aame tint, by which a portion of tbe mine was blown up. Th number of men missing, and considered aa killed by the acci dent, is nearly 300. There is a probability that but a very tew can d got, ouv sun, NUMBER us. Tooinb seta the Tables Tnraed oa Hiir. .The rebel govennvnt atrs to hive lta seriously alarmed by tumor of aa intended invasion of Tex a by ibe Mexicans, and on tbe . 22d of May leaf, as appears by documents published t ibe Mexican papers, Robert Toombs, Secretary of State, addressed a letter oa tbe subject to' Gen. Vidaurri, Governor of Nueva Leoo, in which be call at eotiou lo th alleged projected marauding expedition, and asks th Governor to put a stop to them and punish th parties esacerned. Vidaurri, in reply, toil ilr. Toombs, wh seems sot to hav learned even the A B C of diplomatic usage, tbat he is very much embarrassed by tbe reception or such a letter, which ought to hav been addressed lo tbe supreme government at Mexico, j Th Governor, however, stem well pleased with the opportunity thus alturded bim oi reminding Mr. Teomb, in a diplomatic way, that th Mexicans ar quite as oivil neighbors as th Texan, and tbat be bad better take ear of bis owa people before oomplsieing of hi neigh bor.. Artex aturming tne good behavior of th Mexican frontier population, and denying th xUtebo of any schemes of Texas invasion, beyond tne attempt of tbe Impotent Coxtinas, wh as b-a expelled from Mexico by th mili tary authorities, Uo. Vidaurri quietly dispose ot Mr. Toombs and bis oomptainta as . follow ' "What I hav said is entirely in Oonformity to Ibe legislation, the genius aad tbe morality or Mexicans, who only care to defend tbe sou ot their country by repelling unjust aggres sion, without thinking of disquieting or off ending their neighbors; and if the government, of which your Excellency is a Minister, devotes itself to assuring the preservation of peaoe np-' on th frontier, seeing tbat its citiieos comply exactly with the requirements of international law, wbioh you have pointed out to me, it will afford a proof of its loyalty corresponding at once to the integrity and good faith of Mexico for it neighbors." Mr. Toombs has not seen fit to publish bis correspondence with the Governor in tbe Southern papers, and we think will not writ bim any more letters. . Tbe Retreat ot ZollicofFer A Terrible aad Bloody Ordeal. A correspondent of the Chicago Tribune writing from Louisville, Kentucky, October 28lb, say that tbe rebel General Zollicoffer, in his retreat after the unsuccessful attack upon Wild Cat Camp, left his dead and dying strewn along the road from that point to Barboursville. It is estimated that one thousand men perished iu the retreat alono, and that his loss ia the battle and the retreat will amount to fifteen hundred ' men. The farmers on bis line of march turned out (o wreak vengeance upon him and his men for tho outrages they bad suffered at their hands. The letter sbji : "The retreat began eaiiy on Tuesday morn ing. Jbe dead were lert on the held lo be buried by the Union troops. Th field was literally strewn with them, They must havs fought lik 1 fiends. The execution was terrible, and th wounded were few. Tit effect uf Ihe long balls, the Minie, are represented to have been most terrible - Bodies were perforated and skulls were broken into a half doien pieecs, Many feautures it was impossible to reoognixe. Th grape and canister of the artillery had also found many victims. Tbey were round lying on tbe hill sides'la groupes. It appeared as if the bodies on falling had rolled down the steep side of the bill, and thus piled upon one another. Ths road was blocked with them, and the Tennessee regiments in pursnit rushed over th bodies of their former friends and acquaintances.But tbe retieat was (be most, (rying ordeal which tbe rebels bad lo undergo. The farmer, whom for weeks they had oppressed, aroused by th report of the victory, gathered along the road to give a parting blow, and from Wild Cat to Barboursville tbe rebel army run the gauntlet. From every tree and rook upon the roadside the sharp crack of the farmer's rifle greeted them and sealed a rebel's fate. It is said . that Ihe retreat was on continued fight, in which the poor devils bad no chance whatever. Ambusoades opened their fire upon them from " every side and quarter, and they felt what it was to retreat through a hostile oountry. ' Lik th English who oame to subjugate at Lexiog- ton, Mass., tbey pushed on in baste, flying from tbe storm of bullets tbat beat upon them at every step. They heeded not who fell. They pushed en, eaohmanafor himself, seeking safety in the hills of tbe Gap.'' .'" - (Communicated.)' . Alliance, 0., Nov. 4, 1801. Messrs. Editors Obio State Jovjnrnai :-Gents : In your issue of November 4th, you publieh from your correspondent "Mack," what, to every one uninterested in th late fight here, is known to be a base slander upon the employees of tbe P. Ft. W. & C. R. R , it well as upon th citizens- ot Alliance. He says that tbe Railroad men commenced tbe fight by throwing pins, brioks, &c, this In the first place, is a falsehood, and the author knows it to be. The truth is, . tbat th guard was placed upon the platform of th railroad company, and th switch-lender in performing hi duty, was shoved off th platform while trying to turn th switch.' To you it will be plain that such an unoalled for assault would provoke a quarrel at onoe with men aooastomed as they are by ' fatigue and hardship.; Again, be says tbat th railroad men and oitixens were intoxicated. This again is wrong. ' For it is a notorious fact that the guards were as muoh out of their place as th oitixens wore reported to have been, by going te private dwellings, and at midnight, to beat old men over tbe bead with their Enfield Riftce an eights of a mile from tbe place where the dance was held. When Captain Kirby was hit, he ; was in the door ordering bis men to charge, ' and a sorry charge it wss to bim. Now to those of the 19th Regiment who have received blankets, dinners, and favors of many kinds, w appeal, and the Colonel and Lieutenant-Colonel, as well as many of the officers, that, it was wrong tbat th guards should have been placed mere. nue un reporter forgets himself, and the Interest heretofore felt and expressed by substantial proof of the citi zens, ba been overiooaeti, ana an memi giveu them for their kindness heretofore in helping what is a holy cause to us all. - Th eonstablS spoken of by your correspondent, is ia eveiy sens a quiet and worthy man; and to do bim justioe, will tbe editors state on the authority of the uiUaens of this place, th fact. That there is bad men on the P. Ft. W. & C. R. R., there is no doubt; but will he (your oorrespondent) inform me of any toad that does not have them. And as we nope to am now and hereafter in the cause of right, we protest against any one publishing a slanderous lie to promote in reality s feeling that had for all reasons better be forgotton. Should you wish to inquire into tbe facts or tbe case, address Captain Thomas Stackpole, Colonel Beatty, or Lieutenant Colonel Hollingsworth or yotir humble servant. JUSTICE. George William Curtis delivered a leeiure In Boston the other night in which he said that while Slavery was the oause of the existing war he would rather see emancipation th result of the deliberation of men in lime of peaoe than to have the decree written with th point of th ewerd upon a drum bead. But if they force us to answer which is most preoious, Government or Slavery, they shall have th answer.

A correspondent of the Boston Courier, speak-cf the Telescope Rifle, says : ) '1 hare waited anxiously to learn the result in aotual service of tbe telescope rifles, which we are testing in the field far the first time, and I have very little doubt (hat hereafter they are destined to play an important part in warfare. I am happy to corroborate the testimony given by Governor Andrew in their favor, by an extract from one of. the sharp-shooters, who says: "Our telescope rifles realized our best anticipations, maintaining all we have claimed for them. We can do good work at half a mile, and some at a mile. A Mississippi regiment, 1,600 strong, came in sight of us, and although we were un supported, and only thirty of us in position to see them, we opened fire at over 100 rods, (more than a quarter of a niile, and our rifles fully met our expectations, doing fearful work, and soon putting the whole regiment to flight, while not one of their shots took efl'eot."

The officers find it impossible to keep tbe article awy from the men. At Manassas, recently, tbe soldiers procured beef enlrala, which they blew up with elders and dried, and after filling these impro vised oan teens witn whisky, carried them in their bats, and for several days they had as much whisky as they could drink. The conse quence of this was a serious mutiny, which was suppressed with some difficulty. ! Tnking a Prize at Hattpran. Capt.

Aitant-Qnirtrrmaeter Pavi' Bla- k- eta. To ling. Gen. Thvnuu, Adj. Otn United Slate Army: Sib : It is important I should corieet without delay, some errors in reference to myseir, which I find in your published report te Ibe Secretary of War, nnder dale of Oct. 28, 1861. Gen. Fremont did not give ma any oontrai t far blankets, or for any thing else. As a regularly appointed Assistant Qiartermaater by tbe President, nominated, and, by and with tbe advice and oor-sent of the Senate, appointed by bim (as my commission states), 1 presume 1 was legally competent, and by law bound, to make such purchases as my commanding General ordered me to do ' Tbe blankets you refer to were a po'tioa of my purchases. Ine "Board'' that condemned them did not report tbat they were rotten "and worthless.'' When their report reached General Fremont he sent for me, and, expressing great displeasure, rtquired that th blanket should be returned, t 1 assured bim that there must I some mistake in th report, and requested him to suspend bis approval of it I re-examined the samples by wbioh ths goods were bought, found them not to be rotten and worthl, bat, commercially speaking, sound. As some of the goods cost not much over a dollar a Dianset, and the lot, on an average, about $1 40 eaob, as near as I can remember, and were part cotton, they could not be as strong or as serviceable as goods oom posed only of wool and oosting from three to four dollars each. Although mortified by tho report, I was sat isfied the purchase was a good one, (bat the goods were sound, and that if (hey would not suit for ons nurnose. tbey would for some oth er, where they were equally needed by the Department. 1 manifested my opinion with some earnestness to those with whom I oame in eon-tact, made a written report to the General of my view of tbe affair, and naked tbat a committee of merchants should be appointed to examine the blankets. While the Commanding General bad my request under consideration, one of tbe "Board" who had condemned (hem came to my office and said to me, Ihe Board of Surrey would like the General to allow tnem to re-eiamme the goods. This was granted by (he General, and a new survey was ordered by Assistant Adjutant-Gen. Kelton. I was present, and wefouLU tbat while some of the blankets, those weighing from five to six and three-quarters pounds per pair, could not be torn by us. the lowest-priced ones could. One member of the Board, who seemed to have the most objection (o receiving them, said that what be meant by the word "rotten," in the original report, was "not fit for soldiers in the field." I was sure his motive was good, for his anxiety was that each soldier should have an all-wool blanket, not to weigh less than four pounds, and (o bo army standard in size. The blankets were as well suited for tbe use of the army during the last three months ss standard blankets will be for tbe ooming six. 1 do not know what the seoond report was, but as I was informed some days after the second inspection, by tbe Assistant Quartermaster, who was at the head of the Clolbing Department, that 1 could now have a recipt for the blankots, and tbat they bad been issued, I considered the affair srtisfaoUiriiy settled. 1 do not know that they were not sent to the bespital, but upoa a fuller examination, I think it. will be found lhal they were not. But even if tbey were, I do not see that this should reflect discredit upon those engaged in the transaction. In Exhibit II, published by you, 1 find ma name in the list as one of the officers of the body guard. From your Report 1 infer (hat your information comes from Ihe Paymaster's office. It is entirely incorrect, as you may ascertain from Col. Andrew, 4f you think proper to inquire of him. I can only aooount for the misstatements yon have made iu reference to myself, from lbs fact that when you were in St. Louis I was confined to my bed, and lhal you presumed from ths reports you aw and beard tbat you had (he whole Ircth befu-e you in reference to these affairs. Very respectfully, t. M. DAVIS. Assistant-Quartermaster Philadelphia, Oot. 31, 1801. Cut Oir the Back Legs of iota Chairs I will tell you a secret worth knowing.

Tbe Retreat ot ZollicofFer A Terrible aad Bloody Ordeal. A correspondent of the Chicago Tribune writing from Louisville, Kentucky, October 28lb, say that tbe rebel General Zollicoffer, in his retreat after the unsuccessful attack upon Wild Cat Camp, left his dead and dying strewn along the road from that point to Barboursville. It is estimated that one thousand men perished iu the retreat alono, and that his loss ia the battle and the retreat will amount to fifteen hundred ' men. The farmers on bis line of march turned out (o wreak vengeance upon him and his men for tho outrages they bad suffered at their hands. The letter sbji : "The retreat began eaiiy on Tuesday morn ing. Jbe dead were lert on the held lo be buried by the Union troops. Th field was literally strewn with them, They must havs fought lik 1 fiends. The execution was terrible, and th wounded were few. Tit effect uf Ihe long balls, the Minie, are represented to have been most terrible - Bodies were perforated and skulls were broken into a half doien pieecs, Many feautures it was impossible to reoognixe. Th grape and canister of the artillery had also found many victims. Tbey were round lying on tbe hill sides'la groupes. It appeared as if the bodies on falling had rolled down the steep side of the bill, and thus piled upon one another. Ths road was blocked with them, and the Tennessee regiments in pursnit rushed over th bodies of their former friends and acquaintances.But tbe retieat was (be most, (rying ordeal which tbe rebels bad lo undergo. The farmer, whom for weeks they had oppressed, aroused by th report of the victory, gathered along the road to give a parting blow, and from Wild Cat to Barboursville tbe rebel army run the gauntlet. From every tree and rook upon the roadside the sharp crack of the farmer's rifle greeted them and sealed a rebel's fate. It is said . that Ihe retreat was on continued fight, in which the poor devils bad no chance whatever. Ambusoades opened their fire upon them from " every side and quarter, and they felt what it was to retreat through a hostile oountry. ' Lik th English who oame to subjugate at Lexiog- ton, Mass., tbey pushed on in baste, flying from tbe storm of bullets tbat beat upon them at every step. They heeded not who fell.
